The project of LED streetlights in the city appears a doomed endeavour for all practical purposes, notwithstanding the tall claims by the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) about power savings and efficiency.
Complaints about non-glowing streetlights swarm all the grievance platforms of GHMC., including social media, and the corporation routinely forwards the same to the officials of the Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL), which is a joint venture of all public sector units under the Ministry of Power, and responsible for implementation of LED installation programme across the States.
